There’s no real ambiguity about this fellows alignment an d I think even the people who think D&D alignment is outdated would agree
I mean, he's someone that will cheer and approve if you:
- rob or intimidate people - murder people - give the middle finger to anyone asking for help - cause someone misery - make fun of anyone who's suffering
But no moral judgement, please. He's just "a strong personality" or something.
Which scenes are those?
Pretty sure it's just his approval system. He tends to approve of you doing rather sadistic or callous things.
These are his actual approvals, without resorting to rhetoric like, "give the middle finger to anyone asking for help"
Are these reactions fundamentally evil?

ETA: there was a comment about him not enjoying being a hero at the party... not enjoying being a hero doesn't equal evil.
